Family Weekend

Saturday was the first KU football home game and we couldn't have asked for better weather. With a small breeze, the sun out and the heat to a minimum, it was the most perfect setting for a football game. Even though I still don't understand everything about football, I definitely still enjoy tailgating and the game with friends and family.

We celebrated the afternoon with Derek's family by eating lunch at Free State! Then, we enjoyed the game by sitting in their new, shaded-side seats! On the way back to the car after the game, we snapped this great picture of the 4 Jayhawks in front of the Campanile...



On Sunday, the family festivities continued. My side of the family gathered at my parents house for some delicious dinner and pumpkin pie (per Derek's request..... and I think he ate an entire pie!). Because the great weather continued, we were all able to enjoy eating outside on the patio. My cousin Brandon and his 2-year old daughter, Reyna, were even able to be with us since they are in town!

Thanks to both families for the wonderful food and together time over the holiday weekend!
